Pencil Scarf by Letizia Rossi
With nostalgic grade-school appeal, this cheeky Pencil Scarf from U.K.-based label Lazy Oaf is both in step with persistent surrealist trends in more haute fashion circles (like Marc Jacob's infamous deconstructed shoes last season) and with decidedly more lowbrow circles, like the Bacon Scarf. Sure to elicit smiles on the subway or on the street, the pencil's smirk and splash of pink eraser make for a humorous addition to drab winter wardrobes.
Available in yellow and red online (and unfortunately in acryclic only) from Lazy Oaf Shop for £25.
